Chapter 94 Holding Your Hand, Growing Old Together
The brilliant sword light was extremely dazzling. It landed on the round platform, making a huge roar. The void was faintly trembling. Everyone couldn't help but close their eyes, and some couldn't bear to look directly.
At this time, even if they didn't look at the situation on the round platform, they all knew in their hearts that Jianmo was defeated, and the defeat was extremely thorough!
Qin Xuan even claimed that if he didn't use the power of the sword, Jianmo would never be able to defeat Xie Yu and would not be qualified to be in the top three.
The stunning sword just now seemed to confirm what Qin Xuan said before. Jianmo's sword heart was too weak. He only used the power of the sword, so he was defeated miserably, and he couldn't even catch Qin Xuan's sword.
After a few breaths, the sword light fell completely, and after the light of the spirit array dimmed, Jianmo's figure on the round platform appeared in everyone's sight.
"How is this possible..." Countless people looked at Jianmo, their expressions suddenly solidified there, and there seemed to be a look of disbelief on their faces.
Jian Mo still stood on the round platform, but his breath was much weaker than before, and his black hair was scattered on his shoulders in a mess. He was just a little embarrassed, but he didn't seem to be injured.
However, countless people witnessed the style of the sword just now. Under the sword light, Jian Mo couldn't help being injured.
"Why?" Jian Mo raised his eyes and looked at the peerless figure in the sky, and asked with a slightly dull look.
The second before the sword light was about to fall on him, the murderous intent that had been locked on him suddenly disappeared. There was only some sword energy on him, which could be broken at will.
Even so, he seemed to really see death in front of him. All his previous pride collapsed in an instant. There was only endless fear and panic in his heart, and he had no intention of resisting.
Qin Xuan looked calm, looking at Jian Mo below, and slowly said: "I have said before that your sword heart is too weak, relying too much on the power of the sword and ignoring the true understanding of the will of the sword. The sword just now did not intend to kill you, but just let you know yourself.
I did not intend to kill you, but just let you know yourself.
Qin Xuan's words kept echoing in Jian Mo's heart, and his face felt hot.
Qin Xuan's words were true. Facing the sword just now, he had forgotten to block it and lost the sword heart that a swordsman should have.
Everyone now understood what had just happened, and the look in their eyes when looking at Jian Mo had changed subtly. They were no longer as respectful as before, and even showed a trace of sympathy and pity. Pity.
If a swordsman loses his determination to fight, how can he defeat his stronger opponent in adversity?
Feeling countless eyes shooting at him, Jian Mo's face was full of shame, and he didn't even dare to raise his head. He felt humiliated in his heart.
The proud and arrogant swordsmanship genius of the past was defeated by his own heart. The attitude of looking down on others from a high position in the past no longer exists at this moment. What a irony!
Compared with Jian Mo's lack of attention, Qin Xuan is undoubtedly the existence of everyone's attention. He has come to this point with supreme talent. Even if his cultivation is low, he has practiced both martial arts and formations, and has a strong and domineering sword attack and a strange body movement, which is enough to make him look down on the heroes.
"Everyone." Duan Wutian slowly stood up, looking at the people below with a smile on his face, as if he had something to say.
"My Lord Emperor. "Instantly, everyone in the audience stood up at the same time, holding their breath, with extremely respectful expressions, especially those from ordinary families, who worshipped him as if he were a god.
Duan Wutian looked at the people below with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "I am very pleased with this competition. Many talented people have emerged. Now I will issue rewards. The fourth to tenth place will be awarded the title of Viscount, and the title will be determined by themselves. "
"Hiss! "Everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath. This reward was of great value. He was directly conferred the title of Viscount. Countless people dreamed of it but could not get it. It was the reward for this competition.
Yue Meng was stunned when he heard this, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. This was what he had been pursuing for a long time, and now it finally came true!
Ou Wuyou's face was extremely ugly. He looked at Yue Meng with envy and jealousy. He was only one step away from being able to enjoy this honor. However, with that one step, the gap between him and Yue Meng would be irreparable.
"The third place winner can choose any Xuan-level lower-grade Yuan skill collected in the palace." Duan Wutian continued.
The third place winner was Wang Hao. He didn't care too much about the reward. The Wang family was originally a top-notch family. The Xuan-level lower-grade skills were not too precious to him, but he still bowed to Duan Wutian to show his respect.
"The second place winner, the title of Marquis, can choose any Xuan-level middle-grade Yuan skill. "
Many people looked at Jian Mo, but saw that he was extremely depressed at this time, his eyes were blank, and he was still immersed in the failure just now. He ignored the reward just announced.
"If he can't find his sword heart, I'm afraid his life will stop here." Old Man Yunshan said softly.
Jian Nan heard this, and a trace of shame flashed across his face. As a master, he couldn't escape the blame for Jian Mo's current situation.
"Finally, the reward for the first place is..." Duan Wutian said here, and suddenly paused, as if he did it on purpose.
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent, and countless people showed their expectations. They were obviously very curious about what kind of reward Qin Xuan would get. Even those first-class family heads who usually had a transcendent status were looking forward to it at this time.
"First place, the title of Marquis, choose a Xuan-level upper-grade Yuan skill at will, and give a purple Yuan Dan! "
Duan Wutian's voice finally fell, and everyone's eyes began to tremble. Although they had already expected that the reward would be extremely generous, when they heard it with their own ears, their hearts were still quite uneasy.
Not to mention how noble the position of Marquis is, and its status is equal to that of the Tenth Lord of Tianyu. Even the high-grade Yuan skills of the Xuan level are extremely valuable. I am afraid that there are not many of them in the entire Tianyu Kingdom.
In addition, Ziyuan Dan is also an extremely precious third-level elixir, which is very helpful for Kaiyuan Realm warriors to advance to Yuanfu Realm. This elixir was originally prepared for Jian Mo and others, but unexpectedly it ended up in Qin Xuan's hands. .
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor, for the reward. I am very grateful to you!" Qin Xuan said in a neither humble nor overbearing manner. He was very polite and extremely humble.
"Well, you are very good. You are one of the two most talented people I have seen in so many years." Duan Wutian praised.
Qin Xuan's eyes flashed. One of the two people, the other must be Sikong Xuan.
Suddenly Duan Wutian's expression condensed, a smile appeared in his deep eyes, he looked at Qin Xuan and said: "I can still make you a promise, as long as it is within my ability."
Everyone's hearts trembled slightly. The Emperor clearly wanted to win over this person. Giving him so many rewards was not enough. He actually made a promise to him, which showed how much he valued him.
Qin Xuan's eyes showed sharpness. He naturally understood the meaning behind these words and quickly responded: "Thank you, Lord Emperor, for the gift. It's just that this condition is difficult for me to choose for the moment. Can I let you know in the future?"
"It doesn't matter. You have won my heart today, and I hereby give you the purple gold seat." Duan Wutian said with a smile.
He waved his hand casually, and someone immediately sent a purple gold seat to the top of the ladder, level with many top power leaders.
Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with a sharp edge, he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor, for giving me a seat!"
I saw him stepping forward gently. It looked like he was stepping on the ground, but in fact, his figure was constantly rising. His steps were extremely mysterious, as if he was walking in high altitude.
"What a handsome figure, you are really a young hero!" Many leaders of the top forces at the Zijin Seat directly praised him. As the helmsmen of the top forces, how could they let such a person befriend Qin Xuan? Opportunity.
"Ruoxi." Qin Xuan's eyes met Duan Ruoxi's, and he called softly in his heart, which only lasted for a second before leaving.
Then he bowed slightly to many important people. When he passed Ouyang Tian, his pace suddenly slowed down a bit, and a meaningful smile flashed across his dark eyes.
"Huh? This person's eyes look so familiar. I seem to have seen him before." Ouyang Tian recalled the way Qin Xuan looked at him just now, feeling a little confused.
He is a pharmacist who has studied alchemy all his life. He is extremely uninterested in martial arts. The reason why he came to watch this competition was only because the Emperor personally invited him and he came as a last resort.
Moreover, he was not very interested in the battle below, and naturally paid little attention to the young man in white, even though he was the first person in this competition and had outstanding martial arts talent.
However, when the young man in white walked past him, he looked very much like the same person in his eyes. Moreover, the man was also the same age and was wearing white clothes. After careful consideration, the two people were actually 78% similar.
However, when he thought that the young man was good at refining medicine, he probably didn't have high martial arts attainments and could never be this young man in white, so he stopped thinking about it.
At this time, I saw a person falling from the sky above the round platform and landed in the center. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes. He was clearly the person who presided over the competition before.
He looked solemn and his eyes were bright, and he said: "The next step is the most important part of this feast, the wedding ceremony."
As soon as the words fell, bright smiles broke out on the faces of countless people. Compared to the tense and depressing atmosphere of the competition just now, the wedding ceremony seemed much more cheerful and joyful, and the whole place burst into cheers, making it extremely lively.
Qin Xuan's eyes flickered, looking at the bustling scene below, but all kinds of thoughts flashed through his heart. The next thing that was most important in his trip was to rescue Duan Ruoxi at all costs.
At the same time, Duan Ruoxi was filled with worry. Qin Xuan was right behind her, but she couldn't recognize him, and there was a hint of worry in her beautiful eyes.
Suddenly she seemed to have thought of something, her red lips opened slightly, and she said to Qin Xuan: "I know your thoughts, I hope you will not move."
A few breaths later, a long-lost voice sounded in her mind, and when the voice completely fell, her delicate body couldn't help but tremble, and there were faint tears in her beautiful eyes.
"My heart is in my heart. I will hold your hand and grow old with you. I will never let you down in this life."
